Lettuce-Free Salads

Tuesday, May 2, 2017; 6-7:30pm

Sure, you want to be healthy. And you know salads are healthy. But maybe you've had one too many soggy lettuce leaves this year. This class focuses on making healthy, seasonal salads that are packed with flavor and perfect bag lunches or dinner sides. We'll also review some easy and delicious homemade dressings to up your lettuce-based salad game, too. This class focuses on knife skills, giving you the chance to hone your slicing and diving abilities. It's for chefs of all levels, from kitchen novices to returning experts.

Fresh Pasta: Ravioli

Tuesday, May 9, 2017; 6-7:30pm

Hand made pasta is a delicious treat that's surprisingly simple and incredibly fun to make. Learn to make pasta dough, roll it like a pro, and even pinch together your own ravioli. You'll learn best practices when working with fresh pasta, make an easy pasta sauce, then dig in to the delicious fruits of your labor.

Mediterranean Mixer

Tuesday, May 23, 2017; 6-7:30pm

Famously healthy and flavorful, Mediterranean food is a growing part of many people's diets. It's also a great food to make from scratch and serve up for lunch, snacks, and dinner. In this class we'll make flavor-packed chicken kabobs, hummus, cucumber salad, and homemade pita bread. Once you learn these staples you'll be making them every chance you get!

Sweet Galettes

Tuesday, June 6, 2017; 6-7:30pm

Galettes are a delicious (and impressive!) way to satisfy your sweet tooth. Essentially free-form pies, galettes can be savory or sweet. In this class you'll learn to make a versatile crust, and assemble a beautiful treat with a seasonal fruit filling. You'll go home with newfound confidence baking flaky crusts and ready to impress family and friends with your homemade desserts.
